Ingri Midgard Fiksdal is a choreographer based in Oslo, Norway. She holds a PhD in artistic research from the Oslo National Academy of the Arts with the project Affective Choreographies (2019). From 2020-2024, Ingri was an Affiliated Artistic Researcher with CoFUTURES at the University of Oslo – a research group working on global futurisms from non-anglophone traditions.
Ingri currently researches hegemonies of knowledge and power within dance-as-art through the long-term project Coeval Dancefutures. Here, choreography is understood as a format of speculative fiction that can propose complex and manyfold understandings of body, gender, knowledge and history. She is concerned with how practice and theory are entangled in her work in a way where neither is perceived as anterior to the other.
Ingri has created more than 30 performances and her work has been performed extensively in Norway, Europe, Asia and North-America.
Ingri´s work is supported by Fri scenekunst – kunstnerskap from Arts and Culture Norway.
